2 DCA/MA/1 DCA/MA/2 DCA/MA/3 - Purpose fulfilled DCA/MA/4 DCA/MA/5 - Purpose fulfilled DCA/MA/6 - Purpose fulfilled DCA/MA/7A Requirement: Throttle Arm - Inspection and Re-torque of Screw/Nut All carburettors on which the throttle arm is clamped to the throttle shaft To prevent throttle arm becoming loose and separating from the throttle shaft accomplish the following:- 1. Check for correct torque the clamp screw, or alternative bolt and self-locking nut securing the throttle arm to the throttle shaft. The correct torque values are 15 to 20 inch pounds for the number screw on MA-3 series carburettors, 20 to 25 inch pounds for the number screw on MA-4 series carburettors and 35 to 40 inch pounds for the number bolt and nut. 2. Check that there is clearance between the clamp faces when the torque value is correct. 3. Lock screws with inch lockwire as shown in the drawing below. Safe-tie throttle arm screw with lockwire as shown View of Carburetor Throttle Arm Showing Method of Tieing Lockwire Compliance: Within the next 100 hours TIS, unless already accomplished, and thereafter each time the throttle arm is fitted to the throttle shaft. Effective Date: DCA/MA/7 - August 1971 DCA/MA/7A - 30 October 1992 Issued 29 June 2000 Page 2 of 2 CAA of NZ

3 DCA/MA/8 Carburettor Float - Removal Precision Airmotive (formerly Facet Aerospace and Marvel Schebler) Model MA3, MA3A, MA3PA, MA3SPA, and MA4SPA carburettors repaired or rebuilt from 1 November 1991 through 15 July 1992 or for carburettors with code numbers or serial numbers listed in Consolidated Fuel Systems Incorporated (CFS) Mandatory SB CF- 1-92, Revision 1 dated 6 July These carburettors are installed on but not limited to Textron Lycoming model 0-235, and series engines and Teledyne Continental A-65, A-75, C-75, C-85, C-90, C-115, C-125, C-145, and series engines. Requirement: To prevent a disruption of fuel flow to the engine and engine power loss accomplish the following:- Visually inspect the float for CFS P/N CF and remove the float if the date is stamped on the top of the float lever arm and replace with a serviceable float. Note: Floats identified with Precision Airmotive P/N with any date stamped on the float lever arm or CFS P/N CF with dates 8 89, 12 89, 1 90, 2 90, 8 90, 10 90, 1 91, 2 91, 4 91, 4 92 or 7 92 stamped on the float lever arm do not need to be removed. (Emergency FAA AD refers) Compliance: Within next 5 hours TIS. Effective Date: 18 July 1992 DCA/MA/9 Carburettor - Removal MA-3PA carburettors, Facet P/N A , A and A having S/N in range DD through DD , DM through DM and DT through DT respectively, each as detailed in Facet SB A1-87. These carburettors may be fitted to Lycoming C1C, -L2C, -H2C, -N2C, and -P1 engines. Requirement: To prevent possible power loss due to a loose metering sleeve, accomplish the following:- 1. Check affected engines to determine the carburettor S/N. (on carburettor name plate on throttle body). 2. If S/N is one of those listed in Facet SB A1-87 (Avco Lycoming SB 481 also refers), remove the carburettor from service before further flight. (FAA AD refers) Compliance: Within next 25 hours TIS or 30 days whichever is the sooner. Effective Date: 8 April 1988 Note: This AD has been transferred from the Avco Lycoming AD Schedule - DCA/LYC/177 referred. Issued 29 June 2000 Page 3 of 3 CAA of NZ

4 DCA/MA/10 Carburettor Modification MA4-5, MA-5 and MA-6 series carburettors manufactured after April 1984, installed on but not limited to Lycoming 0-360, 0-540, VO-540, TVO-540 and Continental series engines. Requirement: To prevent possible jamming of the throttle, modify affected carburettors per Facet SB A1-88. (Avco Lycoming SB 483 and TCM SB M88-15 refer). (FAA AD refers) Compliance: Within next 100 hours TIS. Effective Date: 16 June 1989 Note: This AD has been transferred from the engine AD Schedules - DCA/LYC/178 and DCA/CON/160 referred. * DCA/MA/11B Composite Floats - Replacement Precision Airmotive (formerly Facet Aerospace and Marvel Schebler) Carburettors fitted with composite floats. Requirement: To prevent composite floats absorbing fuel and sinking which may result in disruption of fuel flow to the engine, replace the existing composite float with an advanced polymer float or a metal float per Precision Airmotive Corporation SB MSA-1, Rev 1. Compliance: At next carburettor overhaul or by 31 August 1993, whichever is the sooner. Effective Date: DCA/MA/11A - 12 February 1993 DCA/MA/11B - 29 June 2000 DCA/MA/12B Requirement: Improved Venturi - Modification All MA-3A, MA-3PA, MA-3SPA and MA-4SPA carburetors. To prevent primary venturi failure and disruption of fuel flow to the engine, replace the two piece venturi with a one piece combination primary and main venturi casting per Precision Airmotive Corporation SB MSA-2, Revision 1, 2 or 3. (FAA AD also refers) Note: If the engine subsequently runs rough or experiences power loss after a onepiece venturi is installed, modify the carburettor in accordance with the following:- For Precision Airmotive Corporation Model MA-3SPA series carburettors with P/N or , installed on Teledyne Continental Model O-200A series, install a new fuel nozzle per Precision Airmotive SB MSA-7, dated September 30, For Precision Airmotive Corporation Model MA-3SPA series carburettors with P/Ns , , or , installed on Teledyne Continental Model O-300 or C- 145 series engines, install a new fuel nozzle per Precision Airmotive SB MSA-8, dated July 10, For Precision Airmotive Corporation Model MA-3SPA series carburettors with P/Ns , , , or , installed on Teledyne Continental Model C- 75, C-85, or C-90 series engines, install a new fuel nozzle per Precision Airmotive SB MSA-9, dated October 10, Compliance: At next carburettor overhaul or by 31 August 1993, whichever is the sooner.
